Autumn Ball (Estonia)
Directed by Veiko Õunpuu2h 3m2007
Autumn in Estonia, where six people live, six solitudes, prisoners of the monotonous architecture of Soviet-era concrete buildings, in search of human companionship, of love, of a ray of light in an ocean of gray.
Our read: Autumn Ball (Estonia) (2007) reads as a heavy, slow-burn, grounded drama entry — measured in intensity, intimate in scope, measured in temperature, nihilistic in outlook, with a strong directorial signature.
Heavy, slow-burn, measured drama, grounded in texture. Nihilistic, intimate, measured.
